I was a wee bit interested, but lost interest when the charity for penalty contributions was pre-selected for me. Back to zombie town I go.
Valid concern! But you can choose to donate to any charity you want. What you see is just a recommendation that matches the week's challenge. Once you commit to it, you can click and type in any charity (or amount) you prefer.
I gamified Thoreau’s "simpler living" philosophy and adjusted to the digital age. The goal is to subtract a modern commodity every week to find out what we can/cannot live without.
If you complete the week, you upgrade your 'human' attributes (Focus, Clarity, Strength,...). If you fail, you donate real money to a charity that matches the challenge.
